英文摘要：

This paper investigates whether an isotropic zodiacal light from the outer Solar system can account for the detected background excess in near-infrared. Assuming that interplanetary dust particles are distributed in a thin spherical shell at the outer Solar system (>200 AU), thermal emission from such cold (<30 K) dust in the shell has a peak at far-infrared (~100 microns). By comparing the calculated thermal emission from the dust shell with the observed background emissions at far-infrared, permissible dust amount in the outer Solar system is obtained. Even if the maximum dust amount is assumed, the isotropic zodiacal light as the reflected sunlight from the dust shell at the outer Solar system cannot explain the detected background excess at near-infrared.

Observations of the Near-Infrared Spectrum of the Zodiacal Light with CIBER

Interplanetary dust (IPD) scatters solar radiation which results in the zodiacal light that dominates the celestial diffuse brightness at optical and near-infrared wavelengths. Both asteroid collisions and cometary ejections produce the IPD, but the relative contribution from these two sources is still unknown. The Low Resolution Spectrometer (LRS) onboard the Cosmic Infrared Background Experiment (CIBER) observed the astrophysical sky spectrum between 750 and 2100 nm over a wide range of ecliptic latitude. The resulting zodiacal light spectrum is redder than the solar spectrum, and shows a br…

Modeling of the zodiacal emission for the AKARI/IRC mid-infrared all-sky diffuse maps

The zodiacal emission, which is the thermal infrared (IR) emission from the interplanetary dust (IPD) in our Solar System, has been studied for a long time. Nevertheless, accurate modeling of the zodiacal emission has not been successful to reproduce the all-sky spatial distribution of the zodiacal emission, especially in the mid-IR where the zodiacal emission peaks. We therefore aim to improve the IPD cloud model based on Kelsall et al. 1998, using the AKARI 9 and 18 micron all-sky diffuse maps. By adopting a new fitting method based on the total brightness, we have succeeded in reducing the …

An improved model for the infrared emission from the zodiacal dust cloud: cometary, asteroidal and interstellar dust

We model the infrared emission from zodiacal dust detected by the IRAS and COBE missions, with the aim of estimating the relative contributions of asteroidal, cometary and interstellar dust to the zodiacal cloud. Our most important result is the detection of an isotropic component of foreground radiation due to interstellar dust. The dust in the inner solar system is known to have a fan-like distribution. If this is assumed to extend to the orbit of Mars, we find that cometary, asteroidal and interstellar dust account for 70%, 22% and 7.5% of the dust in the fan. We find a worse fit if the fan…

Mid-infrared spectroscopy of zodiacal emission with AKARI/IRC

Interplanetary dust (IPD) is thought to be recently supplied from asteroids and comets. Grain properties of the IPD can give us the information about the environment in the proto-solar system, and can be traced from the shapes of silicate features around 10 $μ$m seen in the zodiacal emission spectra. We analyzed mid-IR slit-spectroscopic data of the zodiacal emission in various sky directions obtained with the Infrared Camera on board AKARI satellite. After we subtracted the contamination due to instrumental artifacts, we have successfully obtained high S/N spectra and have determined detailed…

Cometary Origin of the Zodiacal Cloud and Carbonaceous Micrometeorites

The zodiacal cloud is a thick circumsolar disk of small debris particles produced by asteroid collisions and comets. Here, we present a zodiacal cloud model based on the orbital properties and lifetimes of comets and asteroids, and on the dynamical evolution of dust after ejection. The model is quantitatively constrained by IRAS observations of thermal emission, but also qualitatively consistent with other zodiacal cloud observations. We find that 85-95% of the observed mid-infrared emission is produced by particles from the Jupiter-family comets (JFCs) and $<$10% by dust from long period come…

Asteroid Belts in Debris Disk Twins: VEGA and FOMALHAUT

Vega and Fomalhaut, are similar in terms of mass, ages, and global debris disk properties; therefore, they are often referred as "debris disk twins". We present Spitzer 10-35 um spectroscopic data centered at both stars, and identify warm, unresolved excess emission in the close vicinity of Vega for the first time. The properties of the warm excess in Vega are further characterized with ancillary photometry in the mid infrared and resolved images in the far-infrared and submillimeter wavelengths. The Vega warm excess shares many similar properties with the one found around Fomalhaut. The emiss…

白矮星小行星破裂的红外特征

Infrared Signatures of Disrupted Minor Planets at White Dwarfs

本文介绍了斯皮策空间天文台IRAC和MIPS对20颗T <20，000 K的白矮星和金属污染光球的测光观测结果。GD 16和PG 1457-086可能都探测到了温暖的拱星盘，而其余的目标则没有显示出典型的中红外过量尘埃盘，包括一些严重污染的恒星。扩展先前的研究，超过50%的单颗白矮星的金属吸积率dM/dt > 3e 8 g/s，显示出轨道尘埃的温暖红外线过剩;这可能是潮汐摧毁小行星的结果。这个基准吸积率介于太阳系黄道带云的尘埃产生率1 e6 g/s和主序星A型星碎片盘的1 e10 g/s之间。据估计，在所有冷却年龄小于0.5 Gyr的单颗白矮星中，有1%到3%拥有星周尘埃，这意味着潜在的小行星群。

Hot debris dust around HD 106797

A0 V主序星HD 106797与AKARI和双子座/T-ReCS的测光是用来检测超过预期的10和20微米之间的恒星光球层发射，这是最好的归因于热拱星周围的碎片尘埃的恒星。碎片尘埃的温度被推导为Td ~ 190 K，通过假设过量发射近似为一个单一的温度黑体。推导出的温度表明，碎片盘的内半径约为14 AU。碎片盘的分光度比我们自己的黄道带云亮1000倍。在HD 106797周围存在如此大量的热尘埃，不能用碰撞造成碎片盘稳态演变的简单模型来解释，很可能是瞬态事件起了重要作用。我们的数据还显示了一个狭窄的光谱特征之间的11和12微米归因于结晶硅酸盐，这表明尘埃加热过程中发生的碎片盘的HD 106797的形成和演变。

Explorations Beyond the Snow Line: Spitzer/IRS Spectra of Debris Disks Around Solar-Type Stars

We have observed 152 nearby solar-type stars with the Infrared Spectrometer (IRS) on the Spitzer Space Telescope. Including stars that met our criteria but were observed in other surveys, we get an overall success rate for finding excesses in the long wavelength IRS band (30-34 micron) of 11.8% +/- 2.4%. The success rate for excesses in the short wavelength band (8.5-12 micron) is ~1% including sources from other surveys. For stars with no excess at 8.5-12 microns, the IRS data set 3 sigma limits of around 1,000 times the level of zodiacal emission present in our solar system, while at 30-34 m…

Dusty Planetary Systems

Extensive photometric stellar surveys show that many main sequence stars show emission at infrared and longer wavelengths that is in excess of the stellar photosphere; this emission is thought to arise from circumstellar dust. The presence of dust disks is confirmed by spatially resolved imaging at infrared to millimeter wavelengths (tracing the dust thermal emission), and at optical to near infrared wavelengths (tracing the dust scattered light). Because the expected lifetime of these dust particles is much shorter than the age of the stars (>10 Myr), it is inferred that this solid material n…

Ultraviolet to optical diffuse sky emission as seen by the Hubble Space Telescope Faint Object Spectrograph

We present an analysis of the blank sky spectra observed with the Faint Object Spectrograph on board the Hubble Space Telescope. We study the diffuse sky emission from ultraviolet to optical wavelengths, which is composed of the zodiacal light (ZL), diffuse Galactic light (DGL), and residual emission. The observations were performed toward 54 fields distributed widely over the sky, with the spectral coverage from 0.2 to 0.7 um. In order to avoid contaminating light from the earthshine, we use the data collected only in orbital nighttime. The observed intensity is decomposed into the ZL, DGL, a…

The HOSTS survey for exozodiacal dust: Observational results from the complete survey

The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) enables nulling interferometric observations across the N band (8 to 13 um) to suppress a star's bright light and probe for faint circumstellar emission. We present and statistically analyze the results from the LBTI/HOSTS (Hunt for Observable Signatures of Terrestrial Systems) survey for exozodiacal dust. By comparing our measurements to model predictions based on the Solar zodiacal dust in the N band, we estimate a 1 sigma median sensitivity of 23 zodis for early type stars and 48 zodis for Sun-like stars, where 1 zodi is the surface densit…
